Hi John,

Thanks for pointing this out.  I did make assumptions and they turned out to
be wrong.  At the end of a given period of time, the area of a sphere with
the radius (s)econds * 186,000m is s^2 times greater than the area outlined
by c^2.  In other words, after 2 seconds the spherical area is 4 times
greater than the c^2 area.  At 3 seconds the spherical area is 9 times
greater.  This makes much more sense.

It is interesting to note that regardless how long c^2 travels through time,
it will always cover the same amount of area, 34.59 billion square miles.
Just like the velocity of light, the area it covers is also constant.

Dave

Even if your initial assumptions were correct, your math does not support
what you are saying...

2/4pi is not equal to 1/8pi.  It is equal to 1/2pi
100/4pi is not equal to 1/400pi. It is equal to 25/pi
